What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books.

We often hear of people breaking down from overwork, but in nine out of ten they are really suffering from worry or anxiety.

In truth, people can generally make time for what they choose to do; it is not really the time but the will that is lacking.

Don't be afraid of showing affection. Be warm and tender, thoughtful and affectionate. Men are more helped by sympathy than by service. Love is more than money, and a kind word will give more pleasure than a present.

A wise system of education will at last teach us how little man yet knows, how much he has still to learn.
